Yes, there is a way to check the calibration of Ucancam and the CNC Router. You can calibrate the software and machine to ensure that what you see on the screen matches what is being cut on the CNC. It is important to make sure that the calibration is accurate to achieve the desired results.
Based on the information found on the Forum page at their website, if you have single line fonts, then the installation is just like any available font for your computer. Firstly, locate the font and then go to Start > Run > fonts. Secondly, drag and drop the fonts to the Fonts folder. You will see an installation display dialog. After this procedure, restart the application and the fonts will be available for usage.
I am a first time user of CNC machines and Ucancam. I get to cut a shape or a name as I program software but the blade does not lift up high enough between objects and cuts into my object. What should I do?

There is a user guide manual available for downloading through Google Search. Access the search results and download the PDF file from the Netdna-CDN website. In the file there will be instructions on how to use the safe height for Z axis. The function is explained in detail with example to get you started.

We are a small company from Romania, Sunprotection Corp Ltd. and we bought a CNC router machine from Creation Mechanical & Electrical (Shenzhen) .Co Ltd in 2010, model: CTE 1225 A and UcanCam V8 engraving software. Because the original computer is old, I tried to reinstall the original program with original dogkey in Windows XP SP3 and SP2, but the program is unstable. Can you please help me? Maybe the original software CD is damaged. Please help me with the proper version of the program. I am writing to you because Creation Mechanical & Electrical (Shenzhen) .Co Ltd is on vacation, and I'm in an emergency. The machine is the only machine base for my business. For the future I think I will purchase a newer version, but do not know how much and if it fits my budget.

According to their support page, the software (version 8) is compatible only with Windows XP. There is no support for newer versions of Windows. Unfortunately, there isn't anything you can do except upgrading to a newer version of the software (9 or 10). For this purpose, access their official website to find more information about this. There is no patch or tweak to improve the compatibility of version 8 for newer versions of Windows as well.
The feed rate we set in the tool management for a specific tool is not speeding up the feed speed on the router. It seems all feed speeds are set at 3.6m / min The hand controller is Weihong NK105 G3

The feed rate issue you are facing could be related to the settings within the Ucancam program or the configuration on your CNC router. It does not appear to be a spam message or advertisement, and there are no political implications.
